Property Location: Lot 49, Block 2, Wildridge Subdivision / 2510 Beartrap Road

comprised a stone veneer base, wood and stucco siding, aluminum clad windows, asphalt shingles,
rusted metal roofs. This is a comer lot with two 25' front setbacks and is further limited with a 100'
easement which splits the lot in half.
Eric Heidemann presented the staff report to the commission.
Michael Pukas approached the podium to discuss this application. Commissioner Green asked about
the gables and a short dash line as being 35 ft height minimum and received an affirmative response
from applicant. Mr. Pukas' design was bent to push building to furthest point away from power lines
plus give design architectural interest. Grading was a concern. Commissioner Green commented
that parking was ample. Commissioner Struve appreciated the driveway was away from the comer.
Commissioner Evans suggested a shared driveway might be beneficial and could eliminate the
retaining walls. Concerns revolved on the landscaping plan, breaking up the retaining wall by
benching, suggested offset of the south elevation of the two sides to give some variance to plane,
steel roof material and how quickly it would patina, connection to storage shed needed some
masking, and stronger east side entrance.

redwood vertical siding and stucco, aluminum clad window frames, and asphalt shingles.
Eric Heidemann presented the staff report.
Erich Burkard approached the podium and began his presentation by discussing the site, turnaround
in the driveway, 7 -foot retaining walls, and illustrating it by a model. Commissioner concerns were for
the driveway, and a need for a hammerhead to tum around. Commissioner Evans opened a
discussion of the materials to be used. Mr. Burkard responded that previous commissioners
